The old man listened patiently to the trainer, nodding a few times. He didn't mind the young trainer was rambling, it was nice to see enthusiastic young trainers on the island. The abrupt departure of the haughty girl wasn't unexpected, nor unwelcome. Luckily most trainers who came to the islands were not like that.

"Thomas Redcliff," he introduced himself. "Born and raised on Rhando. I am not the gym leader, although you were correct to assume he doesn't need to walk around with a ground type." He glanced down to his silent Houndoom before he faced the trainer again. "He has a Nidorino as his partner, but he doesn't use him in the official gym battles." He had a smile on his face. "I watched young Henri grow up, get his Nidoran, build the gym on this island." He nodded a bit. "I'm sure you will have a good battle."

Sitting there listening to the old man as he introduced himself seeming not having a problem with Bakuto's recent ramblings. As he listened to Thomas Redcliff who seemed to know a great deal about the gym leader. Bakuto decided not to press for too much information he wanted to find out more about the gym leader when he meets him. For now he learned the gym leaders name is Henri that was something. Knowing that the gym leader's other Pokémon wasn't a Pokémon for the gym but the guys actual Pokémon Bakuto could help but think he was sort of similar. His own main Pokémon wasn't really regulation for the Rorie league either but he brought Absol anyway.

Looking over at the counter Bakuto sees nurse Joy calling him to come over, Bakuto sees two Pokéballs and smile as he realized his Pokémon were ready. Bakuto gets up and collects to the two Pokéballs and attaches them to his belt with the rest of his other Pokéballs. Bakuto then says to Thomas. "It was nice meeting you mister Redcliff, and thanks for the information on the gym. Glad to know where to find the gym now. I should be getting going. My Pokémon are healed up time for a gym battle, hopefully it goes well." Bakuto gets ready to leave. Unless Thomas stopped him or someone or something interrupted him on his way to the ground gym. Bakuto was just going to head straight to the Pokémon Gym. With a bit of a spring in his step from excitement for his gym battle. With Absol in tow going straight for where Thomas Redcliff told him the gym would be.

@BladeSS4 "It was nice to meet you too," Thomas replied with a nod. "Have a good battle."
He watched the trainer leave and remained in the Pokémon Center a little while longer. When nurse Joy had a moment she sat down next to him for a chat.

Meanwhile a Marowak was patrolling in the entrance hall of the gym with its club over its shoulder. The walls had a brown mud colour and there were some stone benches that were more comfortable than they looked. A television set hung in a corner, it showed some kind of nature documentary.
A double door straight ahead led into the arena, and a closed door was on the left. There weren't any trainers inside.




@CitrusArms@Salenea
As professor Maple awaited their reply, two haunters floated into the lab, talking to each other. When they noticed the others they fell silent and floated to Maple, but one of them transformed into ditto and fell from the sky. Maple catched it, but kept her attention on her two guests.

"An Onyx? Well, you're in luck. I just so happen to be especially handy in the mountains and caves. My pokemons' fighting-type techniques will take care of things handily." Was that all the professor wanted? It sounded like there were other things she could use a Ranger for, but she'd keep it simple for now. If it was important, the professor would say something.

She turned to the... student? Not a traditional trainer, if she was receiving assignments this way. "I'm Regan, pleasure to work with you. Lucky you, gettin' your own escort. I'm no slouch, either."

Arriving at the Pokémon Gym he looks around with wonder in his eyes. Bakuto smiling the entire time as he walks around looking for the entrance. He sees the Marowak with hits bone club, instantly drawing his pokedex out and getting scan of the pokemon 'Marowak the bone keeper Pokémon. Despite its size, its offense and defensive strength is impressive' Bakuto reads through learning it is a ground type pokemon. More or less confirming that Bakuto was in the right place.

Taking in his surroundings, he looks at the television for a second to see what was on it. Curious of everything around this pokemon gym. Wondering what it would be like to be a gym leader in a gym similar to this. It looks very well build and set up in the way the element of this gym was meant to represent. Bakuto trying to formulate a plan in his head for ground types he didn't really have a significant advantage other than the mystery of his other two Pokemon that weren't walking around like Absol. While he wasn't sure what the gym leader was going to use. He would assume he would be using a Marowak but he could be wrong so he wasn't going to start assuming things.

After a bit of looking around Bakuto would walk up to the entrance whether then calls out loudly, "Hello?! Is anybody here? I am here for a Pokémon Battle!" He would turn to the Marowak if nobody would come to him and asks politely with a cheerful smile, "Hey have you seem the gym leader Marowak. I am looking for him so I have my first pokemon battle." Talking to the Marowak like it was another person. With Absol in tow as well seeing the Marowak, Absol gives it a friendly greeting by saying its own name.

Sarah nodded when professor Maple spoke. She had heard about the Onyx and it had been a pokemon she wanted to see anyway. Hearing it hadn't been seen for a while made her think of the reasons why. "Of course Professor, I'll leave right away," Sarah said before she turned to Regan. She looked at the Ranger as she introduced herself.

Sarah arched her eyebrow when Regan said how lucky she was. Sarah didn't feel particularly lucky to have someone escorting her, but it was probably for the best.
"Very Lucky," Sarah said with a small smile. "I'm Sarah. And if possible I would like to leave right now. Unless you need to buy some supplies at the Pokemart?" She asked Regan.

----------------------------------------------------------
"Awesome, this way," Gabe said before he turned to lead the way. "My parents aren't home though, they both are working," he said as he walked on. "My house is easy enough to spot, the house has a pond and a massive oak tree in the front yard. And dark green doors with a big door knocker in the shape of a Timburr."

Gabe stopped in front of his parent's house. "This is my place. Make a mental picture so you can find it again," he said with a wink. "Wanna grab a drink inside or go further to your place. It'll be a good walk."

The Marowak nodded to the trainer and marched to the door on the side, pushing it open and marching into the dark corridor. The distant sound of the Marowak talking to someone could be heard and soon footsteps echoed through the corridor. A man emerged and locked eyes with the trainer with his Absol.
"Welcome to the gym," he said, spreading his arms. "I'm Henri. How can I help you?"

Seeing the Marowak respond then going down a dark corridor. Bakuto waits he could hear the Marowak talking but couldn't make out what was being said. He could assume what the Marowak was saying as most pokemon say their own names when talking. Bakuto waits and sees a man emerge then introduces himself as Henri the same guy that Thomas told him who was the gym leader.

Bakuto smiles and says, "I am Bakuto, I am here for a gym battle." Bakuto went straight to the point after introducing himself and stating why he is there. Not sure what to expect he just is getting ready to mentally get ready for a pokemon battle. Waiting for Henri to accept the challenge then Bakuto would go where he needed to so he could start this battle if they were to get ready to get started on with his very first the gym battle.

Henri looked at the trainer in front of him and nodded. "This way," he said, gesturing to the glass door on the other side of the room and he led the way. "Coming, Nido?" he asked as he walked away and a Nidorino appeared from the corridor too, he nodded a greeting to the Absol and followed his leader. Henri opened the doors for them and stepped into the arena. The arena was circular, a stone path circled around a sandpit, leading to two opposite rectangles at the edge of the sandpit with a Poké Ball painted on them.

"How many Pokémon will you be battling with?" Henri asked as he took place at one of the trainer area's. "We can battle with a minimum of one and a maximum of three Pokémon. All types are allowed in this gym, but not in the league."

The Marowak had followed them inside too and stood near the door, watching the trainers in silence. The Nidorino sat next to him.

Following the gym leader he hears him call for 'Nido' and sees a Nidorino follow the gym leader. Bakuto smiles remembering what Thomas Redcliff said about the gym leader and how Nidorino was one of his pokemon that wasnt gym regulation. Once entering the battle arena, Bakuto looked around but quickly gets into postion where he must stand and continued to listen to Henri the gym leader.

When he was asked how many Pokémon he wanted to battle with. Bakuto answers quickly, "Three Pokémon sounds fine to me." Bakuto pulls a pokeball from his hip then presses the center of it to expand the pokeball. Bakuto looks down at Absol next to him. "Not you yet buddy. We know this is a ground type gym but we need to still see what he has first and we have the perfect guy for the job of seeing what he has." Bakuto looks back towards the gym leader "If we are going to do a three team Pokémon battle then lets get started! Go Shedinja!

Throwing out his first Pokémon he intends to start this battle off with first. His ghost, bug Pokémon Shedinja. Absol just lays down out of the way and off the arena floor just going to watch the battle or take a nap it is hard to tell at the moment what Absol was going to do while waiting for a turn to be sent out to battle. Bakuto waits for the gym leader to pick his Pokémon next before trying to come up with a full strategy to deal with these ground type Pokémon.

"I'm all ready to go. Shall we?" Regan gave a smile and led the way out of the building. She checked the compass on the side her bag, getting her bearing for North. Ah, but how far North? And which way would be best? She was completely unfamiliar with the lay of the land around here, which created a problem. "I'm from a much larger island nowhere near here, so I'm not too sure of the area. The approach to the area we're looking for is just straight north, then?"

The Ranger turned her attention skyward, waving to a bird soaring high. The bird banked and descended quickly, stopping and landing in front of Regan. "There's my good bird. Rapier, we're looking for a large Onyx to the north. I'm not sure how large, exactly, but I'm sure you'll be able to pick it out. Sarah, have you seen it before? Do you have a more... useful description for Rapier?"

"Very well," Henri said and he looked at his Shedinja. "My first Pokémon will be Sandslash!" He threw the Pokéball in the air and after it opened the Sandslash stood on the sand. "Let's start off easy, shall we? Sand Attack!"
The Sandslash alternated his right and left paws to scoop up sand and fling it in the direction of the Shedinja.
One thing that was rather abundant in the gym was sand, but after six swift scoops the Sandslash stopped the attack, reading itself for what was next to come.

Lucian thinks for a minute, than answers "I am fine, My pokemon and I just got something to eat. But you get what you want!" He feels a buzz from his pokedex, once he looks into it, his face pales. "Oh no, oh no, oh no." He starts freaking out.

Umbreon instantly runs to his side, trying to comfort him. She nuzzles his side and tries to get into his lap. Gardevoir knew immediately what was happening. "His sister is here" She said in a harsh tone

Getting ready, seeing the first pokemon is a Sandslash. Bakuto fights the urge to pull out his pokedex for this pokemon and continue the battle. The first attack being a Sand attack in the sandy arena, Bakuto wasn't really surprised but Bakuto yells out to Shedinja, "Brace yourself." A move meant to affect accuracy Bakuto, it's a move that can get through Shedinja's wonder guard. Being that it is more of a status affecting move rather then an attack

Shedinja gets attacks, it shakes a bit, maybe having trouble seeing from the attack. Bakuto calls out very quickly, "That's right shake it off, quickly double team, don't make it easy for it to attack you!" Shednija starting to make double team illusion like clones quickly. Each looking like the original making. Not attacking quite yet but trying to make it harder for the sand flinging pokemon harder to try and hit it with more sand or any other attacks.

Sarah nodded and returned the smile. "Ready. Let's go." She followed Regan outside, pleased to see the ranger was well prepared. Sarah looked in the direction they would be going. It wasn't the first time she was going there but she never spotted the Onyx before. There was a path, a direct road and usually kept well enough to travel with ease. "There is a path that leads to the rocky area where the Onyx resides. If we go straight North from here we'll get to the path, maybe an hour away when walking normally, it'll go a little North-East."

Sarah looked at Regan's pokemon, she had seen Rapier before. Even pointed the flying type out to Lorie. But so close she could study the pokemon better. "No, I'm sorry, I haven't seen the Onyx myself yet. It must have a good hiding place so any cave or caverns Rapier could spot would narrow it down. Maybe some of them can be better seen from a different angle then eye-height. Or spot some kind of tracks that are larger then average Onyx make."

---------------------------------------------------------------
Gabe nodded and quickly went to grab a drink and a little bag of assorted nuts. He frowned as he heard the Pokedex and looked worried when Lucian was starting to freak out. "What's up buddy?" he asked, "something wrong? Anything I can do to help?" Gabe couldn't imagine what it could be.

Machop looked up alarmed as he heard the tone. "His sister? Bad news I take it. She contacted him through the dex or something?" Mareep looked with big eyes at Lucian. "Poor guy, We should hurry and hide him away in his house."

"Simple enough to get there, then. Very good. Rapier, you know what you're looking for and where, then?" The bird gave the Ranger a sharp nod. "Good. Fly on ahead and let me know what you find." She was about to move on when Rapier nudged her arm, pecking lightly at her sleeve. "Wh- oh. Haha, you want a launch? Alright, alright. Hop up." She put her arm out and the large bird pokemon lit to her arm. They both turned north, and Regan stretched her arm out. She drew back, Rapier leaning his body forward with the motion. Regan, in a movement not unlike a baseball pitch, put her whole body into a throw. Rapier pushed off of her arm at the right moment, gaining great speed. He put his wings out to glide at this great speed and lifted high into the sky, beginning his search.

"Ok, our scout is searching ahead of us. Let's follow him."

As they walked, Regan decided to strike some conversation, "Tell me, Sarah. You're not a typical trainer, are you? I met a Coordinator just today, which was a completely new thing to me. Never so much as seen one before. The Association came to my island just recently, so the different occupations seem strange. Some of them are obvious; trainers. That's how I got my start, before I became a Ranger. Traditionally, though, where I come from, we would simply live alongside Pokemon; the formalities can be somewhat strange to me. So, tell me, what path do you walk?"

Henri looked at all the duplicates that were being formed. Double Team was a tricky move, it usually gave the advantage to the one using it as they could attack unexpectantly unless his Pokémon would be lucky.
"Fury Swipes," he ordered and the claws of the Sandslash started to glow.
the Sandslash swiped at each copy of the Shedinja. The first few slashes met nothing but air, but he continued his swiping as he worked his way through the clones, hoping the next one would be the real thing.

Henri watched it happen, keeping a close eye on all the Shedinja's. One of them would move when a new order was given and he hoped his Sandslash would see the next attack coming.

Bakuto waits to make an attack, watching sandslash move. Even when it started to fury cutter to slash through the double team images he still waited. Eventually Sandslash hits through and nails Shednija with a fury cutter but wait nothing happened to Shednija as if the move had no effect. Bakuto smiles then yell, "Now at point-blank range Hyper beam!"

At the instant of the command Shednija unleashes a huge hyper beams right at Sandslash, who happened had to get close with the fury cutter move. A powerful beam like move Bakuto had waited until Sandslash was right there able to take the full attack with very little room of attack. Knowing the toll hyper beam puts on his own pokemon it would leave it open for attack if Shedinja launched the attack and missed. Instead Bakuto waited for Sandlash to get close and relying on Shedinja's wonder guard ability to get the hyper beam attack as close as possible.

Sarah watched the interaction with Rapier and the ranger. She smiled amused when Regan launched her pokemon. It showed her the bond between them. The ranger was quickly rising in her esteem and seemed to be an enjoyable travel partner. She enjoyed being out and walking in the nature.

Rapier was flying ahead now and Sarah nodded when Regan suggested to follow him.

Regan started talking and Sarah glanced in her direction a few times. Her lips curled up in an amused smile when the last question was asked. "What path?" Sarah looked downwards. "This one I'd say." Sarah grinned before she looked ahead again. "I'm not a typical trainer no. Even though I did walk that path briefly. I even picked up a pokemon in the lab Kanto and did two gyms there. But I am a student now. I study to become a pokemon researcher." Sarah paused. "I love pokemon and I realised that there is still so much to discover, so much we don't know. And I want to part of that." She looked at the other female again. "What made you decide to become a ranger?"

The Sandslash got hit by the Hyperbeam and slammed against one of the pillars around the arena. Henri returned him. "I suppose I can give you a bit more of a challenge," he said, taking another Pokéball and he threw it in the air. "Rhydon!"
The large ground/rock type emerged and locked eyes with the opponent.
"Rock Throw," Henri ordered and the Rhydon lifted his arms in the air and a lot of rocks hurled in the direction of the Shedinja.
